We don't need to stop him, just slow him down. Every time we stop them from getting a first  down, we need to score. We need to steal the ball, take it out of their hands, intercept their throws and score for every mistake they make or we cause. Do I hear an Amen? Go Bulls!

This reminds me of 20 years ago when I was talking to some guys about the Bulls in their heyday. Guys I worked with at the time were arguing over how to stop them and they were going on and on about what it was going to take to contain Michael Jordan. Taylor is like that for Wisconsin. If you're trying to game plan about how to stop him to win, you're ******. He's going to get his yards just like MJ was going to get his 30 points. To win, you need to stop the other guys. Just like to beat the Bulls, you needed to stop Pippen and the supporting cast, planning to shut down MJ was a loss from the first whistle. No, I'm not saying Taylor is the even in the ballpark of MJ, I'm saying he's going to be hands down the best player on the field and he's going to get 30 touches and 100+ yards whether you like it or not.

@E.T. -- while the images are great. Taylor has more than 600 carries at Wisky... ZERO fumbles.

Another interesting stat... he has a CAREER total of 16 receptions.. he is most definitely not a receiver.

I would expect that Taylor will get his yards against USF... but can USF limit the rest of Wisconsin... can USF get some stops on defense?  I think (pray?) the new offense can keep up...  Hell, USF might get more yards on a lot less time of posession because of the style of play.

While the top pic isn't definitive (still looks like he lost the ball), the bottom pic maybe his knee was down (again, he still lost the ball), what can the middle pic be other than a fumble .... incomplete pass?
